Who would believe something like this:

***Amish Virus Alert***

You have just received the Amish virus.Since we have no electricity or computers, you are on the honor system. Please delete all of your files on your hard drive, then forward this message to everyone in your address book.

Thank thee.

Sophos has the actual hoax information on their security page.
